Hi all here, from the posts I read, maybe this isn't possible, but I really need to move som
files from my Win 98 internet computer to my Win 95 machine. MS Backup works fine for this--
unless the files are larger than 1.44 Mb, requiring spanning multiple floppies. My Win 95 backu
works fine, unless the file needs to span multiple disks, then it just freezes the Win 95 backup
Any solutions? Time to hook the network back up? ('putes are in two different buildings now!
Thanks, Pa

network , direct cable connect or ...haul the drive out of the 95 box and
stick it in the other as slave.

Well, I started running the network cable between the
buildings. I'm not sure if winzip can make the file I
need most small enough to fit one disk (3.2Mb).

It doesn't have to. It can and will span multiple floppies if necessary.
I have transferred files much larger than 3MB via floppies.
FYI
Mb = Megabits
MB = Megabytes

winrar has better compression and if it's a database the compression ratio
is usually around 10:1
